Ranuncolo Cartoccio C4/Mare Vase

Inspired by the shapes of nature the new collection of paper clay objects was created by Paola Paronetto. The image of buttercups, with their generous crowns and dancing stems, suggests small daring structures and imaginative balances that acknowledge, as always in Paola's work, imperfections, asymmetries, and irregularities. As thin as paper, yet full-bodied and sculptural, they are born of alchemies that are impossible to replicate, so that each has its own soul and story.
